Hello VU forum! I guess most of you already know that the AN-94 got easier to use because of the higher refresh rate (tickrate). Basically it got easier to click since your clicks get registered more accurate. However this kinda results in a very good gun and in my opinion it's a tiny bit too good at the moment. I mean If you can use it at it's full potential it's has by far the highest DPS of 500 (damage per second) in the game. So my recommendation to balance this out would be to lower the max damage to 20. The would result in a DPS of 400. Still 25 units better than the AEK's (375). Here a little comparsion:

And this leads me to my second requirement: Dont reduce the rate of fire since this would make it easier to use. And you dont want that the best gun in the game gets easier to use

I'm myself using this gun 24/7 and I know what I'm talking about. For someone else who is not that familiar to the AN-94 this idea could look pointless because this person wouln't achieve the 500 DPS anyway. Since there are many guys using it in competitive like me I think this patch is suitable. And please don't touch spread, recoil or the rate of fire. You would destroy this gun as we know and love it.
